I am looking to test my Speakatoo API credentials for my Text to Speech setup in my CRM. I have referred the API documentation however, I am not getting the JSON response as expected.
Can someone guide me how can I first setup the test on postman and then implement for my PHP application.
I tried to include the raw request as below:
{
"username":"cyro***#gmail.com",
"password":"*********",
"tts_title":"testing_API",
"ssml_mode":"0",
"tts_engine":"neural",
"tts_format":"3gp",
"tts_text":"Text for synthesize",
"tts_resource_ids":"TRDu7S1e63c6f288f85180a9130c4e5e10f39dc7fsmJ1XYfxH",
"synthesize_type":"save"
}
I guess, you should take the raw JSON body and test with your credentials. Don't forget to pass header Authorization else it won't work.
You may also implement in your application and it should work. Additionally, you can always contact their support team.

I want to retrieve data from a data warehouse that has a web-based API, I need to use an API key for authentication and use the GET / Customers command to retrieve the list of customers data, but when I am using that same thing in postman, it's returning the same documentation page of the data warehouse?
I am new to this any help will be really appreciated.
The URL doesn't look valid:
You need a base URL, endpoint, http method, authentication scheme, and credential or a token etc.
I don't know details about your system and API, so let's see an example:
base url is https://stackoverflow.com; your current base url is localhost:4444, is your server running on your machine? If so, it might be correct, but I assumer you're talking about a server running somewhere else, not on your computer
endpoint (path parameter) is /questions/69883697, in your case /customers
http method is GET and you find it here in Postman; it also means it will not go into query parameters where you put it:
authentication scheme - your docs mentions an api key that goes into a header called Authorization, so you have to set it in Headers, not as a query parameter:
Read carefully what's on your screen, Postman uses the same language as your API documentation, so if your doc speaks about headers, you need to go into Headers tab in Postman.
Hi I am using postman client for Chrome to run my rest api calls. I am trying to update issue in JIRA via rest API. I have referred to JIRA API also for updating an issue.
I am using PUT method to update an issue fields. Here is the syntax.
PUT /rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}
I am trying to update summary field like this.
{"update":{"summary":[{"set":"Bug in business logic"}]}}
But it is giving me the 400 bad request error.
and in the body its showing message "No content to map to Object due to end of input".
Please find the attached screenshot for more reference. Thanks in Advance.Jira Update issue
In postman rest API client, add the json object to Body as in the below picture.
I added authorization as Basic Authorization and provided JIRA credentials.
Note that the body should be raw and type should be JSON(application/json) instead of Text(default).
Response for this PUT request is 204 when update is successful.
Here is REST API Documentation for additional options.
Can anyone guide how to integrate with Silverpop, using OAuth(tokens)?
I referred this link
connecting to web api using c#
and I was able to get access token. After this I don't know how to proceed.
Thanks.
Take a look at my github repo:
https://github.com/marcelluseasley/IBM-Marketing-Cloud-XML-API-Wrapper
It isn't finished, but I started working on an XML API wrapper for the Silverpop API. First of all, if you are trying to integrate with the API, you should be able to contact client support and get a copy of the API PDF.
In any case, you should have a client id, client secret, and refresh token. You will need these three things along with a header value of "refresh_token" for the "grant_type" header key.
So you will first sent a post to https://api(pod number).silverpop.com/oauth/token . This will return an access token in a json dictionary ("access_token").
Any subsequent calls made to the API endpoint (https://api(pod number).silverpop.com/XMLAPI will require that you pass this access token in the header section of your request:
"Authorization:" would be the header key and
"Bearer: (access token)" would be the header value
Looking at my code will make it clearer if you are using Python. Your best bet is to get a copy of the API documentation. You have to be a Silverpop client to get a copy though.
Good luck.

When doing any filters or any other option allowed in the request body per documents like this: https://developer.intuit.com/docs/0025_quickbooksapi/0050_data_services/v2/0400_quickbooks_online/in... (the quickbooks online API document) I always get the error "Unauthorized OAuth Token: signature_invalid" in my own application as well as the API tool located here: https://developer.intuit.com/apiexplorer
Example of what I put in request body:
PageNum=1&ResultsPerPage=20
or simply ResultsPerPage=20
I am not sure why this would also happen in the API Explorer even per instruction but it does. Without the ability to move the page marker and show more results as well as being able to filter, I will simply not be able to use the API as you can see.
Any ideas?
It could be a bug in ApiExplorer. I tried with RestClient plugin of Mozilla browser. It worked fine.
Method - post
Content-Type - application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Paging filter - PageNum=1&ResultsPerPage=1

The REST API for Mongolab is cool. I can use that for analytics in my website directly using the following javascript, provided on Mongolab's support page. Only if I can understand how the authentication actually works. The API key mentioned in the URL could be easily copied by anyone who'd view the html source. The Mongolab control panel does not offer any registration for my website that'd assure me that the api key will be validated only if coming from my domain.
How does this authentication work?
$.ajax( { url: "https://api.mongolab.com/api/1/databases/my-db/collections/my-coll?apiKey=myAPIKey",
data: JSON.stringify( { "x" : 1 } ),
type: "POST",
contentType: "application/json" } );
Excellent observation, and great question.
Currently, all API keys have read and write access to the databases associated with the user's account, and any agent possessing an API key can successfully issue any such request.
As you observe, this very basic pass key is not designed with any kind of fine-grained security in mind.
However, we're working on a batch of new REST API security features aimed at precisely that.
Contact us at support#mongolab.com if you'd be interested in discussing the details.
I'd like to use MongoLab service for my first AngularJs app with MongoDB, but MongoLab is not ready for production with a web app that wants access from the front end to the MongoDB.
It's very easy to get the API key in the browsers network traffic (see screenshot below, the apiKey is in plain text there) and then any one can have full access to the DB. So messing around with the MongoDB would be no problem.
I haven't found a workaround for MongoLab yet. At the moment, I think I will use another service like https://www.dreamfactory.com/
I haven't tried it in detail yet but it looks great for an AngularApp with MongoDB and I need to check how they implemented the security of the api. On the first look, it looks like it is working with session tokens to secure the requests to the database.
You have an API key for doing http request to your DB using their REST API. For example, if a user wants to log in I make a request with a GET method like this:
https://api.mongolab.com/api/1/databases/name_db/collections/users/put_your_params_like_username_and_pw?apiKey=xxxxxxxxx
And then you analyze the response to that request. It is not the most secure DB in the world but it is getting better.
